This tinted photo of a woman has been a part of my vintage photo collection for a while. I haven't been able to decide if she's wearing a leopard pattern, or if it's just some floral pattern instead, but in my mind I've always thought of her as the leopard lady.
Signs of deterioration keep fascinating me - the marks of photo corners and old tape adhesive left on the piece of book cover I used in the background. Deterioration makes the passing of time visible.

Is there a sound you would describe as the very sound of beauty?
